FIVe3D !

FIVe3D for AS3.0 is out which developed by Mathieu Badimon ! I just download this sweet vector 3D engine. I;m trying to get it to work with Flex, but was hit by a few obstacles . I google around couldn’t really find a complete guide in getting FIVe3D to compile as a SWC.

Although I do manage to find a few sources like pixelwelders which have a good tutorial on FIVe3D. Combining the info that I collected, I manage to get the FIVe3D to compile as a SWC. This really make development to FIVe3D easier on Flex Builder

I hope the steps are clear and here goes:

• 1. Download and install Adobe Flash CS 3 Trial installed (you need the fl.motion.* stuff).
• 2. Download TweenLite from GreenSock.
• 3. Open up Flex Builder and Create a Flex Library project.
• 4. Import entire FIVe3D source code into src directory.
• 5. Import entire Flash CS3 pathtoflashcs3/en/Configuration/ActionScript3.0/Classes.
• 6. Import Tweenlite source code
• 7. Check that you have five3D, gs and fl folders under your src directory in Flex Builder
• 8. Just build it and should get a FIVe3D swc in your bin directory
• 9. Ta ta, just link the swc into any of your experiment project.

Hope the above will be useful to anyone. Cheers
